Compass calibration mode
1. Press the momentary push button
and hold it for more than 8 seconds.
After 8 seconds, CAL is displayed,
then release it.
Note:After button release CAL will
be displayed with a heading. The
compass is now de-calibrated and
enters the Initial AutoCal Mode.
2. Drive the vehicle in a tight circle
in a magnetically clean area such as
an open parking lot. Drive at a rate not faster than 15 seconds per circle
5 mph (8km/h).
Note:Look for a parking lot away from buildings, light posts, manhole
covers, sewer and drainage grates and other metallic objects. Some
magnetic objects may be hidden underground. Look for signs of
underground utilities, water mains or other industrial structures. The
parking lot should be level and have a smooth surface. Blacktop is
preferred over cement as a cement surface often contains iron
reinforcing bars or metallic mesh that could interfere with the calibration
process.
•The CAL indicator will turn off when the calibration process is
complete, leaving the compass heading on the display.
Note:This process normally takes about 1
1 2circles but may take longer
if magnetic noise is present or if the circles are driven too fast.

With this option, you can open and close the sliding door(s) with the
following controls inside your vehicle.
•overhead console button
•remote entry transmitter button
•second row passenger control switch
•inside and outside release handle
Opening and closing the PSD
The PSD will operate without the key in the ignition. The transaxle must
be in PARK to open the PSD, when the key is in the ignition and turned
to the ON position.
The sliding door must be unlocked for the PSD to power open from the
rear trim switches and the inside or outside PSD handles. The fuel filler
door must be closed in order to avoid damage to it when the left sliding
door is opened.
The Power Door Lockout Control is
located in the overhead console.
With the control in the OFF
position, power operation is disabled
from both PSD handles and from
both second row passenger
switches. The overhead console switch and remote entry transmitter will
operate the power doors regardless of the position of the lockout switch.
When opening or closing the sliding doors, you should verify
they are free of obstructions and ensure that children and/or
pets are not in the proximity of the sliding door openings. Injury could
result if body parts are caught or pinched in an uncontrolled sliding
door.
To power open or close the PSD
from the Overhead console:
Push and release the overhead
console right or left hand control.
Pressing this control will also
simultaneously unlock all doors.
